It was good work, hard work. I actually wasn’t too thrilled that they wanted me to go twelve rounds...I’m here to help, I’m here to do the best I can for you guys, so don’t try to take advantage of me. Don’t try to make like you’re running a two-time world champion out of your camp or whatnot...Honestly I questioned last night whether I could go twelve rounds and the first five rounds of back-and-forth action, I wasn’t really sure I could go the full twelve....Then as we got to round six, he started fading a little bit and that’s when I really tried to dig in there and that’s when I said you know what I’m going to stay in here, I got a point to make tonight. I managed to last until about 12, but in rounds 11 and 12 he came back and put it on me. I just totally gassed out in the eleventh and twelfth. So we returned the favors to each other last night...

I have always said paulie is the most overrated fighter of all time and this just proves it. Its completely pathetic that paulie with over 20yrs boxing experience got worked by a ufc fighter with no pro boxing experience. Any ymca or pal member could complete paulie

Floyd has been inactive also, but Floyd has not shown signs in any of his last few fights of being "shot", or even close to it.
Floyd will absolutely humiliate Conor McGreggor and humiliate the people who paid for that PPV.
"Humiliate"...?
Come on.
He may get beat by Floyd, but it's still a "win" for Conor.
Conor will likely gain respect after this.
What the **** is Joe Cortez doing there
I recently saw Golpe a Golpe (Marquez's ESPN show) and Cortez was on there explaining that he was hired by Connor to ref his sparring and get him used to fighting under boxing rules.
But Floyd is 40 and no longer elite.
It's still a mismatch on paper. But not like some think.
Floyds not elite? Floyd is going to destroy Connor so bad boxing fans will actually pity Connor afterwards. Floyd come back from long periods of inactivity many times and is always sharp. Floyd by humiliation Aug.26.
Paulie's got head gear and getting hit by airbags. Floyd won't get so soft a landing. The take-away from Paulie's report is Conor can go 12 rounds, and not only that but finish the stronger. Paulie's now saying that Conor doesn't necessarily need to get Floyd out of there early to prevail. That's quite a substantial development.
Paulie said connor was fading after 5 rounds lol and that's when paulies fat out of shape ass tried to "put it on him" feather fisted paulie went all out to prove a point and gassed himself enabling connor to get back into it, feather fisted guy against a guy in head gear lol, paulie admits he himself was totally gassed out by the end of the fight.connor had already faded after 5 rounds, no way he recovers against an in shape floyd.
Hes going to fade even quicker against a guy he can't hit and is missing loaded up shots at and is hitting him in return at will. Floyd 100% stops him. Connors only chance is a huge lucky punch, that means he has NO CHOICE but to load up on every shot, he will be gassed in no time, no other shot other than a big loaded up shot is going to phase floyd. hes ****ed.

Conors stamina was a question mark going into the fight, but sparring stamina is way different than actual fighting stamina.
Also, judging from the pictures, Paulie was out of shape. Sparring against boxers who are not in peak condition is also less exhausting, because they cant fight hard for the full round.
According to one of connors other sparing partners, connor wasn't happy with paulie saying he didn't have OMG power and Connor wanted to fight not spar and try to knock fat out of shape Paulie out but didn't succeed.

I think its safe to say paulie has never even been knocked down in these sparring sessions because connor for a fact would be waiting to post that picture up on social media.
less than 4 weeks out, prime in shape Connor has a 12 round war with fat out of shape feather fisted paulie, started to fade in round 5 where Paulie tried to put it on him and gassed out him self because hes a fat ****. lmao

In the leaked video Floyd looked shot. His partner was landing the jab at will.

The leaked video is like a minute of sparring and he landed like 2 jabs and missed the majority of them.
Another handy 12 rounds today. We are prepared to destroy Floyd. Pick whatever size gloves you want as well little man. I fight with 4oz. I don't give a **** about the size of the glove. I am coming sprinting at you with bricks. Know that. Brittle hands. A post shared by Conor McGregor Official (@thenotoriousmma) on Aug 2, 2017 at 4:27am PDT
Paulie looking fat as fuck. :rofl:
Conor looks like he is riding an invisible bicycle.
Conor is going to be exhausted by the 5th round if he moves and jumps around as much as he does in sparring while mayweather stays flat footed and relaxed.
Because Paulie is shot, and inactive to add to the list of reasons why using Conor vs Paulie is not any sort of barometer on how Conor vs any other professional boxer would go. Let alone Mayweather.

Yeah I got that also. I think Floyd will fight slow the first 2-3 rounds then turn on.
All I know is this idiot better not lose.
Stop smoking crack bro. Conor is going to get this done.
He does have decent hands and good timing. Not elite world level boxer though.

I'm not sure why people think Conor is a complete scrub. He's not going to beat Floyd or even come close, but to think he couldn't be competitive with a guy like Paulie who would probably be a fringe top 20 guy at WW is a stretch.
Conor has been boxing for 15 years. A lot of pro sparring partners have a pretty weak/average record, and they give champs good work.
I'm not surprised at all by this.

Sounds like they are trying to put out that Conor can go 12.
